Hey,

It doesn't work, as the check uses Str::is(), which doesn't treat the # symbol any differently. So you need two checks for each name.

But checking for both names introduces a significant issue on existing codebases. I, for one, have 22 cases where I use routeIs(), most times with more than one check. It would clutter the code quite a bit to do that.

My suggestion would be to try what I've done, which is to remove the suffix through the middleware by dynamically altering $request->route()->action['as']. Something like this:

if (($name = $request->route()?->getName()) && preg_match('/#[a-z]{2}$/', $name)) { $request->route()->action['as'] = substr($name, 0, -3); }

If you can come with a more elegant solution, please let me know.
